A Western Genius Has laYsated a Con.
E triva,ce to Do It.
Wichita eagle. [volume] (Wichita, Kan.) 1886-1890, 1887-09-06

In the StOreroomS and masters apart
ments are to be seen great variety of
objects heaped together or lying about
without any attempt at order. Here may
be found the owners weapons of war
many double edged swords with scabbards
handsomely ornamented with leather and
brass and suspended by elaborate and
betaSSeled silk ropes; daggers intended to
be attached to the wrist by u leather band
the cross shaped handle when thus car
ried almost lying in the palm of the hand
beautiful long iron spears neatly and
prettily inlaid with brass bands and gen
orally barbed revolvers and pistols Of the
most obsolete types, as well as fiintlock
guns which look rs if they would be rs
dangerous to the user as they could posi-
bly, be to the enemy. Such are the often
sive weapons.
But there are also to be seen war dresses
of enormously thick quilts, intended
specially as protection against poisoned
arrows. The warrior when incased in
these cumbersome garments looks the
most unwieldy and barrel like of African
Falstaffs, as he can neither mount his
horse nor diSmount without assistance,
and If endorsed he is perfectly helpless.
Many of the wealthy chiefs have also very
beautiful coats of chain armor, with head
gear to match, which are probably of old
Moorish workmanship, and are said by
the natives to be as old as David, and are
accordingly valued at a great price

Several Ways of Dining.

There are several ways of dining Of
which l haven't spoken. The cheap bar
rooms are served by one Of half dozen
firms of what are called free lunch manu-
facturerS. whose wagons go round like the
milk and ice carts, delivering monoto-
nous assortment of chopped herrings,
sliced bread, sliced tongue and smoked
beef mustard pickles, cheese and crack
ers. In the high priced bar rooms it is
possible To make better meal They pre-
sent sideboards with tempting arrays Of
olives, SardineS, ham, smoked salmon
corned beef, small sandwiches, Edam
cheese, Boston brown bread and white
bread. \ recent fancy is for the bar
tender to hand out with each drink plate
with two or three sandwiches and nap
Kin. y great many of the faded genteel
youths who hang about Madison square
get amply fed in the Hoffman house bar
room by ordering glass of Bass or beer
and then instructing the waiter to bring
them first bowl CT soup or hot stew and
then sandwich or two. all of which costs
nothing
There is The BeefSteak Tavern" over
100 years old. where you order dinner ten
days ahead, so that they can hang the
steak up that length of time, and there is
Beefsteak Johnny's, where round steak is
served TO poor men for five cents a plate.
Finally there are the not at all dubious
but quite too positive females who move
about the down town offices selling sand
witches, and a colored man who goes the
rouIds OF the up town bar rooms at night
selling soft crabs, hot corn, clam fritters,
or whatever may be in season.-Julian

Answering an Advertisement.

\ venerable New Yorker recently adj
versised, asking any one who wished to go
to Europe under pleasant auspices to APP
ply to him, and giving his address. This
advertisement was seen late one night by
a young man who had been dining freely
He cogitated awhile and then told the
club porter to call a cab, into which porter
and cabby hoisted him. He told the man
to drive to the address given in the ad-
vertisement. Arrived there he was as
sisted to the sidewalk, and with much
dignity ordered the cabby to practice on
the knocker of the old fashioned residence.
The advertiser stuck his venerable head
out of the window, and howled: What do
you mean by waking me up at this hours''
''Come L ansher 'vertishment" well,
Sir, what have you to say:'' That's ORR.
I've come TO shay: Very shorty, but l
can't go with you. Goo'ni. The Argo-

College and Workshop.

The father expects the college to do for
the son what the home no longer does for
him; he sends the college flabby material,
and expects the material to be turned
into such strong, self poised, self con-
trolled manhood as the American home
once furnished to the college. If the
children's teeth are set on edge. it is
largely because the fathers have eaten
sour grapes.
There can he little doubt that two-thirds
of the material now sent to college would
he bettered by being put into 4 workshop
of some Kind for two years between TIE
ages OF - and IS The spread of comfort
among the people has Keen steadily in
creasing the number of those who can
spare their sons the necessity of work
even through their years of early man
hood; and we have not yet come to I'M
derstand the full measure of the injury
which is thus done to the character of the
hoy.-The Century.

Bellies Who Carry Canes.

The latest craze which has struck the
Washington belle is the carrying Of canes.
A few weeks ago a young leader in society
returned from England, and the next day
she surprised her friends by appearing on
the street with cane, writes a core
spondent. 1t wasn't the ordinary dude
cane, but nice little stick with shep-
herds crook of hammered silver. Some
times she swung it and at other times she
struck the ground with sharp rap

Individuals, as well RS newspapers,
generally are more ready to condemn a

While it is a fact that "a Legislature
